Plot Synopsis

HOFFMAN FAMILY GOLD is a one-hour docuseries that follows GOLD RUSH's Todd Hoffman, who four years after walking away from his tumultuous mining career to focus on his family, has returned for redemption. With his father Jack and his son Hunter in tow, will the Hoffmans be able to save a struggling mine for the ultimate payday? Todd has excavated mine after mine for a chance to strike it rich in gold. After hanging up his gold pan more than four years ago, Todd is banking his future mining career on turning around a rundown mine far off the grid 80 miles north of Nome, Alaska. With Alaska's unforgiving weather, rookie crews and beat up equipment, the mine is struggling to keep operations going. Trying to save this mine is a big gamble for Todd, but if he is successful, he will secure the mining rights for the next decade and could build a family legacy. But Todd arrives on site with just seven weeks before winter rolls in. Will Todd, Jack and Hunter Hoffman along with their crew be able to find enough gold to get this mine in the black? Or will this be the last mining chapter for the Hoffmans? In HOFFMAN FAMILY GOLD, Todd's taking on this huge risk and potentially bigger reward with the team he trusts most. Todd's father Jack and his son Hunter will be making the long trek to Alaska along with a veteran crew of gold miners including Jim Thurber, foreman Andy Spinks and bush mechanic Randy Hubler. How will the current crew react when Todd and his team arrive? Will Randy be able to fix all the failing equipment? But most importantly, will they all be able to work together to find gold?

The sophomore season of HOFFMAN FAMILY GOLD premiered on Friday, June 16, 2023 at 9pm ET/PT on Discovery Channel. After last season's difficulties, highlighted by fierce weather conditions, broken equipment, and an inexperienced crew unable to work the rich paydirt, "Gold Rush" legend Hoffman returns to Alaska's Mammoth Valley Mine with a plan to unearth 1,000 ounces of gold to turn a profit and pay off his $750,000 of debt. He also brings his son, Hunter, his father, Jack, a handpicked, trustworthy crew, a fleet of new equipment and the necessary grit to keep the gold coming week after week. However, there's a new challenge at the mine site this season: Hunter. Todd's son is tired of taking orders from his father and he'll stop at nothing to prove he has the experience and skills to successfully run his own mine site, despite the overwhelming pressures. Hunter goes all in this season as he attempts to out-mine his dad. Tensions will soar as the Hoffman's father/son conflict plays out in a high-stakes showdown - all while they battle brush fires, floods, wild animals, and an early Alaska winter. Relationships will be put to the ultimate test as viewers learn if the Hoffman familial bond is worth its weight in gold.
